i liken this to....noticing the "nutritional facts" listed on the bag of chocolate chips, and realizing that the calorie content isn't as bad as you thought it was.....coming across hidden treasure at a flea market......receiving flowers for no reason.....discovering an extra twenty dollars in your wallet.......bumping into a good friend that you haven't seen for a while.....learning that your favorite movie is on tv, and you actually have time to sit down and watch it.....finding out that today is actually friday, when you thought it was thursday....which means that it's the start of the weekend! i hope yours is filled with lots of unexpected, fabulous surprises!
artwork finished with micron pens and watercolor pencils on hand-painted paste papers.

LOVE the doodle! I totally agree :)
Love all of those surprises. . . especially that onion ring. One nice surprise for me today would to have my hubby get home before the repair man gets here.
Thanks for the happy thoughts. Have a happy weekend.
Thanks for the giggle :)
i'm typing with a big smile on my face, lori!! love the sentiment in this post. not only is today the start of the weekend, it is the start of my week vaca in destin, florida. i am so ready for a nice break from work!
such sweet art you create with your watercolor pencils!!
Oh Lori,
I love your sense of humor!
I had to laugh when I read the
art created.
Great kick off for Friday!
Hugs, Darlene
Yes, I do love onion rings and yes, I recently found $5 in my jacket pocket and I didn't know it was there. Additions to the list: winning a giveaway, receiving an unexpected snail mail letter from someone you like, and having your work appreciated by your
child(ren).
Well, I got a good giggle out of this one! I'm sitting here with the most adorable kissable face I have seen in a long long time---Baby Marc!
You always make me smile, thanks Lori! Have a good weekend : )

I just love this saying...is it yours??? Love it!! It says it all! Thanks for the lovely comments on my blog. Now that garden season is over, I will be spending a lot of time in my studio while the snow flies...can't wait!!! Have a lovely weekend. We are suppose to get a hard freeze and our first snow fall.
So true. Love the art work.
I love this! & I love it when that happens!
A lively, creative and uplifting page for sure!
I love those things!
Thinking Friday is Thursday is one better than thinking Thursday is Wednesday, which you wouldn't believe, I actually did this week. Still it was quite good to realise there was only one more day until the weekend instead of two. :)
I'm so charmed by the quote!
Lovely weekend~
I do so love your handwriting. I wish I could write like that. Did it just come naturally, or did you learn those handwritten fonts from somewhere?
I love the way your mind works. :)
I love all of those. We've all have had those moments and they are so great. Love the one about the $20 in the pocket and the friday :). I'm still working on watching my favorite movie "straight" through,without interruptions...lol!
That made me laugh out loud, Lori! I hope you are having wonderful surprises this weekend!!
Come on over to my blog for a special award!
Hugs, Silke
I love this! It's so cute Lori, and guess what? =D Just yesterday my husband got an onion ring in his Burger King French Fries!!! I think you must have artist telepathy or something!...You think up the most adorable ideas for your artwork!... Wishing you many lovely surprises! Hugs, Paulette ;)
Love it...
Lori, I survived my first week as a new nurse & loved every minute of it! Loved it as much as I love this cute post! Hope you're having a restful & relaxing holiday weekend!
yes, that always seemed (still does) like a bit of magic to me...
great lettering!
Oh, I like ALL of those! :) 'specially the one about finding out it's friday. That's the best for sure.
